All in all, Massive Darkness 2: Hellscape is the total package, delivering fast-paced dice rolling action with a splash of tactical thinking. Some scenarios are shorter and some are longer, which is great because that allows players to choose a scenario that fits within their time constraints. Moreover, the loot isn’t as specialized as other games, so even if a warrior draws a wizard’s staff, he can still make decent use of it. As you can see from these descriptions, each of the six heroes has a unique playstyle, and brings their own specific expertise to each adventure.I enjoyed this more as a 2-player game, but if you don’t mind some waiting, this could be a fun 5-6 player experience as well. The attack action in Massive Darkness 2: Hellscape is where a lot of the fun of the game comes from, as each Hero can use their different weapons and special abilities (which we'll cover in greater detail in the next section) to fight against mobs of enemies. To be victorious, heroes will need to acquire new skills throughout the campaign, find the the best loot to equip themselves, and learn how to use the cover of darkness to their advantage! The dice look great, and there’s enough variety in the dice that it makes it fun looking for weapons that fit your particular play-style.
